Chapter 268: Seal the true desire, only ask the Overlord to cut off the obsession, Overlord's swan song, burn the boats
"Of course, there are many people like you who have great potential among the human race. That's why Huoyun Cave will only give you these preferential treatments. If you want more preferential treatments, then show your potential."

"Although showing potential can get you preferential treatment, you still have to walk the path of growth on your own. Huoyun Cave will not protect you, so if you die on the path of growth, you will really die. After all, the human race does not want to cultivate greenhouse flowers, but wants to cultivate truly strong people."

The human race today is a huge race and a huge force. Among the endless human race, there must be many people with potential. Not every human with potential will be discovered, and not every potential stock can grow up.

Huoyun Cave will give some preferential treatment to the potential stocks they discover, but Huoyun Cave is not a babysitter. They want to see a real strong man of the human race, a strong man who has walked out of the battle.

Emperor Xiao could understand and agree with the Fire Cloud Cave's approach.

Di Xiao pondered in his heart, and then asked: "Senior Han Xin, according to what you said, the strong men of the human race gathered in Huoyun Cave. Doesn't that mean that you are all alive? But if you are not dead, why did your dynasty fall?"

"All good things must come to an end. Although we are the subjects of the Han Dynasty, we are also members of the human race. Among the human race, anyone who has cultivated to the Daluo realm will be registered in the Fire Cloud Cave. And these human Daluo who are registered as such are restricted from participating in the fights among the human race."

"And they are members of the dynasty and have cultivated to the Daluo realm. Then when they cultivate to the Daluo realm, they can only be loyal to the dynasty for a thousand years, and then they must go to the Fire Cloud Cave and cut off their ties with their respective dynasties."

"Even the emperors of each dynasty are the same. Once they have cultivated to the Daluo realm, they must register their titles in Huoyun Cave. And they are limited to being emperors for three thousand years. After three thousand years, they must pass the throne to the next generation and then go to Huoyun Cave. After that, they have nothing to do with the dynasty. Even if their own dynasty is destroyed, they cannot stand up."

"If you go against this decision, you will be captured by the truly powerful ones in Huoyun Cave and taken back to Huoyun Cave."

Well, it seems that there are such restrictions in the human dynasty and such regulations in the Fire Cloud Cave. No wonder the Han Dynasty had so many strong men, but was still destroyed.

It feels like it's because of Huoyun Cave. It seems that Huoyun Cave is using the change of dynasties to cultivate strong people of the human race. Secondly, it also hopes that the human dynasty can continue to flow, so that the human race can have more geniuses and create more civilizations, rather than being like a stagnant pool of water.

After knowing this, Di Xiao became more and more excited, and felt that becoming a human in Journey to the West would be extremely interesting.

The God of War City, the place where Xiang Yu was sealed.

Emperor Xiao learned a lot of secrets of the human race from Han Xin's narration. Although these secrets can be known by any human who has cultivated to a certain level, they are also a kind of cognitive improvement for Emperor Xiao now.

Emperor Xiao was impressed by the interesting human race in Journey to the West. However, a man wearing a Confucian robe and holding a beautiful sword said, "Okay, stop chatting. Xiang Yu is coming out."

"Xiang Yu?" Di Xiao was startled and looked into the distance. There was still war going on, but there was no trace of Xiang Yu.

Now that Xiang Yu's army has been wiped out by himself, the remaining remnants are only tens of thousands. It is estimated that they will be completely destroyed soon. But Xiang Yu still did not show up. When he was puzzled, Han Xin gave Di Xiao an answer: "Di Xiao, the Xiang Yu sealed here is not his subordinates. Now the Chu soldiers are all evolved from the residual soul and obsession of Xiang Yu."

"After Xiang Yu was defeated, he was unwilling to accept defeat. Therefore, his obsession was intertwined with his fighting spirit, which evolved into his army, and he wanted to continue to fight on the battlefield and conquer the world."

"Now that the army transformed by Xiang Yu has been destroyed, Xiang Yu's residual soul has also appeared. When it appears, it means that Xiang Yu's obsession has been weakened by a level, and Xiang Yu's residual soul has also been weakened by a level."

"Come to think of it, including this time, Xiang Yu has been defeated ninety-eight times."

"Yes, ninety-eight times. One more time is the last hope, and also Xiang Yu's last chance of survival." The monk in Confucian robes sighed, as if he felt regretful, heavy, and even had a kind of pity.

After hearing this, Di Xiao had some guesses in his mind, but he was still confused. He looked at Han Xin and continued to ask, "Two seniors, what is the significance of these ninety-eight times?"

"Little guy, you are quite curious!" The man in the Confucian robe, who was as elegant as jade, said with a smile: "This is related to the secrets of the human race. Are you sure you want to know? If you know, then in the future..."

The playful voice and the amusing smile seemed to scare Di Xiao. Especially the look in his eyes seemed to be waiting for Di Xiao's answer.

Emperor Xiao was calm and unafraid of danger: "If knowing the secrets of the human race would endanger my safety, then I won't listen."

"Zhang Liang. Your personality is still so weird. Di Xiao has the potential to become the god of war of the human race. He is also a young man that I am optimistic about. Don't scare him." Han Xin scolded with a smile and turned to pat Di Xiao on the shoulder.

He then glared at Zhang Liang and explained to Di Xiao: "Di Xiao, you should know that although Xiang Yu is an enemy of the Han Dynasty, he is also a human. As a member of the human race, Xiang Yu is the best in terms of qualifications and cultivation. Therefore, for the entire human race, a living Xiang Yu is more useful than a dead Xiang Yu."

"In the battle back then, we, the Han heroes, could have killed Xiang Yu and made him shatter his soul. But the sages in the Fire Cloud Cave could not bear to see such a powerful human being die. So they instructed us to evolve this great formation. In addition to sealing the enemy, it also trains the younger generation of the human race. But the most important reason is to eliminate Xiang Yu's obsession and then revive him!"

"That's why we defeated Xiang Yu again and again while we were sealed. This is to make Xiang Yu accept defeat, accept the demise of Great Chu, and then cut off his obsession. In this way, our human race will have one more strong man who can kill all three corpses. He is also a strong man who practices the great way of hegemony."

"Unfortunately, the encounter with the remnant soul is not eternal. After being defeated ninety-eight times, Xiang Yu has reached his limit. If Xiang Yu cannot use this defeat to sever his obsession, then after the ninety-ninth defeat, Xiang Yu will only have two choices. One is to take the opportunity to sever his obsession, and the other is to be completely wiped out."

"Hiss..." Emperor Xiao sucked in a breath of cold air, looking at the gradually dissipating fighting spirit, and felt a breath of dominance and pressure from the sky. That breath made Emperor Xiao feel familiar, and also made Emperor Xiao know that this was the Overlord Xiang Yu.
